Type: article
Abstract: Currently, in the modern world, due to the complex and tense political situation, attempts are often made in various ways to destroy the established constitutional system and offend the honor and dignity of the Russian Federation. One of these methods is the desecration of state symbols, which is an integral part of any state, reflecting its ideology. This article is devoted to the specifics of the qualification of a crime under Article 329 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation. The relevance of the topic lies in the fact that certain issues of qualification of abuse of state symbols are not actually sanctified in the scientific literature today or are only fragmentary. The authors analyzed the specifics of the basis of criminal liability for abuse of state symbols, summarized judicial and investigative practice. Based on the studied practice, the authors put forward recommendations on the qualification of the analyzed act and the proposal of the law.
